COVID SAFTEY for Event As always, the Lions take safety at our events seriously. After careful consideration, we have implemented the following measures to promote the health and wellbeing of attendees and staff: With the news of now another Covid Variant, we will require all Lions and Volunteers to mask up for everyone's safety at this event. As we are working with food prep and an inside event where volunteers are in close proximity, the Lakeville Lions feel this is best policy. The Lakeville Lions have been part of the Lakeville community since 1953.  Our organization works closely with local government, school districts, community leaders, and other service organizations to ensure that fundraising dollars go to worthy local causes and individuals in need of financial help. Your support is greatly appreciated.
